SO asks you to lose weight

Let's say you've gained 30lbs since you first met your SO. If your SO told you that he/she would like you to lose the weight, would you put forth an effort to do it? Or is that grounds for ending the relationship?

His/her reason for wanting you to lose the weight is not health related. They were just more attracted to you before the weight gain.

Do you know how hard it is to lose weight if it was easy there would be no fat people in this world.You will never understand it until you have a dependence on food.Unlike a drug addict they dont need their drugs to live.But unfortunatley when you have a food addiction you still have to eat.Food is like crack to some you some people are addicted to it.Can you imagine giving a crack user a 20 dollar rock and telling him or her to only smoke 5 dollars worth of it and then to put the rest up for later.Or telling them they can only have a little bit of crack today

Do you like how you look on the pictures? I'd lose weight for myself. In any case you will benefit from it, with him or not. Actually, I can't wait to start exercising again and be back in my jeans size 26.

^If this was the case, I would assume that someone would go into a marriage knowing this, understanding that there are deeper weight issues, regular fluctuations, some psychological issues. I would assume, in this case, the husband would be less inclined to be bothered by the 30 pounds because it was something he knew he was getting into. I was answering based on the assumption that psychological addiction issues were not present.

There are drug addicts who quit.

Yes I do know how hard lossing weight is. I lost 50lbs and could loss 20 more. It is a butt kicker! Dh did not ask me to loss I choose to. He told me he didn't realize how big I had got. He did say he would prefer it if I do not get that big again. I told him I didn't want to but it is very hard for me. I also told him he can't balk at me spending money to help me. I just purchased a $400 ellitpical so I can work out at home without having to make it to the gym. If I ever need to I will go back on weight watchers. It is a daily battle as eating is so much easier!!!
